Hi all! Has anyone ever heard of this cemetery? I found it listed as a place of burial in the Shiawassee County Surname File (although it was not listed with the known Shiawassee County cemeteries on that website), but have not been able to locate it or any reference to it on the Shiawassee County USGenWeb site nor by googling it. Thanks for any help! --------------------------------- Looking for a deal? Find great prices on flights and hotels with Yahoo! FareChase.

I think its Fuller Cemetery in Shiawassee. I looked on Find a Grave/ Cheryl "Good friends are like stars...You don't always see them, but you know they are always there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Love" <allaboutgenealogy@yahoo.com> To: <mishiawa@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 3:45 PM Subject: [MISHIAWA] Fulleter District Cemetery > Hi all! > Has anyone ever heard of this cemetery?

Actually, the cemetery is on the Livingston County side of Lovejoy Road. I believe that the Fuller name came from the country school that used to be across the road and a bit to the East in Shiawassee County. It is also known as the Antrim-Conway Cemetery, named for the townships on either side of the road in each county. While it started as a community cemetery, it was operated by a non-profit association for years before being transferred to Livingston county's Conway Township about 40 years ago. I can guarantee the accuracy of this as my father was Sec/Treas of the association for many years and I used to mow it and dig graves there as a youngster. I still live about a mile and a half away and have a good deal of my own family and ancestry buried there. The name confusion is nothing new. I had a great aunt that was murdered by her husband who then committed suicide in 1904. The Owosso Argus covered the story every day for a week, reporting that the families involved had buried one in the Fuller Cemetery and the other in the Antrim-Conway Cemetery. In fact the two graves are side by side, but with a huge granite monument occupying the space between them. (My mother claimed the family did it that way "to put an end to the fighting.")

Good solid report Clyde! Thankx for the "Murder" story... Adds a little sad humor to our sometimes boring job of collecting names. I'm 77 and plan to get a camera and authenticate parts of the cemetery in Vernon... Ralph >From: "Clyde J.
